If (#2 ) 1989, Germans Van Eck Gallery, NYC
4´-diameter sphere has no visible means of attachment
to wall. Inside ball is a large artist-made speaker that rumbles
powerfully at borderline sub-audible levels. The source of deep
base notes are particularly difficult to locate. This prompts
visitors to touch the sphere to find out if indeed it is the
source. The sphere is covered with "unsealed" graphite,
which comes off on visitors fingers.
The candle at right is replaced every 2 hours by gallery staff.
The wax is allowed to accumulate on floor, marking time.
